About this tool
Tax on tuition and coaching income after expenses, comparing the old and new regimes and the 44AD presumptive option.
Tuition and coaching fees earned on your own account are taxed as business income under the head 'Profits and gains of business or profession', not as salary, so classroom rent, study material, assistant salaries and equipment depreciation are deductible under section 37(1). This calculator applies the FY 2025-26 slabs for both regimes — including the section 87A rebate, surcharge and 4% cess with marginal relief — and shows the section 44AD presumptive figure of 6% on digital receipts and 8% on cash receipts alongside your actual-expense computation. It is built for private tutors, coaching-centre owners and teachers who tutor on the side.

Section 44ADA does not cover coaching, so the tool applies 44AD at 6%/8% of turnover, which is the route actually available.
Slabs, 87A rebate, surcharge bands and cess are applied with marginal relief at each boundary, not approximated.
Books under 44AA, tax audit under 44AB, the 20 lakh GST services threshold and advance tax are all checked against your numbers.
Yes. Fees from private tuition or coaching run on your own account are business income and must be reported in ITR-3, or ITR-4 if you declare under section 44AD. There is no separate exemption for teaching income; only the normal basic exemption and the section 87A rebate apply.
No. Section 44ADA is limited to the professions specified in section 44AA(1) — legal, medical, engineering, architectural, accountancy, technical consultancy, interior decoration and the notified ones. Coaching is not on that list, so the presumptive route for a tutor is section 44AD at 6% of digital turnover and 8% of cash turnover, available up to 2 crore of turnover, or 3 crore where cash receipts are at most 5%.
Anything laid out wholly and exclusively for the coaching activity: rent for the classroom, printing of notes and worksheets, salaries paid to assistant teachers, internet and software subscriptions, travel to student homes, advertising and depreciation on a laptop or projector. Personal and household expenditure cannot be claimed, and cash payments above 10,000 to a single person in a day are disallowed under section 40A(3).
Registration becomes compulsory once aggregate turnover from services crosses 20 lakh in a financial year, or 10 lakh in the special category states. Private coaching is a taxable supply at 18% — the education exemption covers schools and institutions awarding a recognised qualification, not commercial coaching. Confirm your position with a GST practitioner before you register or charge tax.
